What people love about Tasmania Tours for Seniors
One of The Best tours I have ever had! A lot of activities, hiking and landscapes, all of that is just worth the price!
Famous 5 - 5 day Tour of Tasmania
- Explorer Six - 6 Day Tour of Tasmania
The tour was very good, we got to see tons of really great scenery and we did lots of walks. My only complaint was that it felt like we were on the road 75% of the time. I realize the driving is inevitable considering the distance between sights, but I would have liked to have done more small activities in one place to break up the driving a bit. The provided breakfasts were basic but adequate. Having lunch provided would have been nice, but there were always lots of options for buying food. The hostel accommodations were typical hostels, some better than others. All were clean, though the toilets were not always the best. Overall, would recommend. Consider bringing a second pair of shoes as mine got soaked each walk and never really dried properly.
